SSD upgrade

[marexim]

Is there a slot available to add another SSD of the same type nvme Samsung mzvl21t0hclr-00bh1 or larger? Would this Solid State Drive (SSD) Kingston NV2 4TB, PCIe 4.0 NVMe, M.2 be compatible? Can it be added or just replaced the old one?

Hi:

According to chapters 1 and 5 of the service manual, your notebook has support for two M.2 NVMe SSD's

Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)

You can see the location of where the two NVMe SSD's go in chapter 5, on page 33.

The manual indicates that HP offered NVMe SSD's up to 1 TB in the model series.

Theoretically a 4 TB SSD should work but you must make sure the memory chips are only on one side of the drive as, it fits inside a bracket.

Look at chapter 5, pages 32 & 33.

A double sided NVMe SSD most likely would not fit.

I posted the link to the service manual for your notebook in my first reply.

I copied and pasted this info from chapter 1 on the manual link I posted.

The service manuals are all in English, so if you looked for it on your notebook's support page in Romanian, it will not appear.

Change the country flag to English at the bottom of the page and the user guides will all show up including the service manual.
